On December 2nd, I decided it as time to give Beach a 30 day rest. Prior to turning him out I took him to a very good vet for a lameness exam. Beach has had big wind puffs on his left front ankle since he was a three year old. The Vet told me that he had something that would suck those wind puffs down and that they would never return. I asked if there was any exposure to a positive test and he said that he had done it over 200 times and there had never been a problem. I said go for it. The wind puffs disappeared and the horse enjoyed a vacation. Sounds sketchy I used this in Ohio 72 hours out no issues sounds like you pushed it a little too far possible right before u leave?? Ur the same as the rest of them cheaters in pa hope you all go down Two and a half months later, 2/24/2020, the horse won and was tested. He tested positive for the substance injected on 12/5/2019. I was shocked and disappointed. We contacted Dr. Robinson at Penn school of Veterinary Pharmacology and she informed us that she was not surprised it is sticking around a long time. The drug is lipophilic, meaning that it attaches itself to fatty tissues and stays there. The reason there haven't been positives on previous horses is that female hormones have not been called until the middle of last year. Most of us use Regumate on our mares and in the middle of last year, several people were fined for progesterone (from Regumate) at the Meadows. They are calling it when it is discovered in Geldings or Horses because it is known to have a calming effect. Ohio did not start calling Progesterone until the first of this year. Medroxyprogestero ne Acetate is not the same progesterone found in Regumate. It is a hormone that humans use for birth control. It used to be used widely in the horse business and was labeled depo-----? It will definitely stick around for a long time. I have been told that there is another positive for it in Ohio but have not verified it. I was intent on sending the sample out for a retest until Dr.Robinson VMD explained the stickiness of the drug. The real shame of it is that the wind puffs did not bother the horse. They just looked ugly. I you have a mare with wind puffs, this stuff will suck them down. If you have a gelding or stallion. stay away from anything that say progesterone.
Bill I used that 72 hours out in Ohio this year on gelding no prob sounds like u pushed it to far possible right before u loaded up? Your a joke just like the rest of pa hope you go down with them .. ps what are you gonna do with the oaks horse you bought when pa gives them days like everywhere else
